Vietnom Local Eatery

If Da Nang had a postcard for modern Vietnamese cuisine, it would feature a dish from Vietnom Local Eatery. Tucked away in the laid-back, beach-adjacent neighborhood of My An, Vietnom is a bold, bright, and flavor-packed eatery that redefines how you experience Vietnamese food — all while staying true to its roots.

Location & First Impressions

Located at 97 Mai Thúc Lân, Bắc Mỹ An, Ngũ Hành Sơn, Da Nang, Vietnom sits just a few minutes’ walk from My Khe Beach. This is one of the most popular neighborhoods for expats, digital nomads, and surfers, and Vietnom blends in seamlessly with its tropical-modern exterior — sleek black-framed glass walls, vibrant mural accents, and hanging plants that invite you inside.

From the street, it has an easy-going but stylish café vibe, instantly recognizable with its glowing “VIETNOM” neon sign and a welcoming storefront.

Tropical Minimalism with Creative Energy

Inside, Vietnom is light-filled, open, and fresh. The design leans into tropical minimalism — neutral-toned walls, raw wood finishes, concrete floors, and an open layout that feels more like a creative studio than a restaurant.

The seating is casual and functional: a mix of bar stools, shared wooden tables, and cozy nooks by the window. There’s a subtle buzz in the air — a mix of ambient lo-fi beats, laptop clicks, and the occasional laughter from travelers swapping recommendations over iced coffee.

It’s the perfect balance between work-friendly and food-focused — no surprise it’s a favorite for remote workers and creative types.

Vietnamese Fusion, Done Right

What makes Vietnom really special is its food philosophy: local flavors, reimagined with global creativity. Their menu is small but sharp — every dish is built with intention, sourcing fresh, local ingredients and pairing them with exciting modern twists.

Highlights include:

• Vietnom Bowl: A build-your-own bowl concept with lemongrass chicken, tofu, or grilled pork, served over rice or noodles with herbs, crunchy veggies, and bold sauces.
• Rainbowl Poke: A Vietnamese take on poke, with marinated fish, crispy shallots, mango, pickled carrots, and sesame over rice.
• Smoothie Bowls: Tropical fruit smoothie bases topped with coconut flakes, seeds, and seasonal fruit — as colorful as they are refreshing.
• Vegan Pho & Banh Mi: Vietnom has excellent vegetarian and vegan options, including mushroom pho and jackfruit banh mi with crunchy pickles and spicy mayo.
• Specials Menu: Often rotating, featuring fusion tacos, Asian-Mexican rice wraps, or coconut curry noodle bowls.

The presentation? Always Instagram-worthy, with edible flowers, layered textures, and handcrafted ceramic plates.

Healthy, Fresh, and Tropical

Vietnom offers a carefully selected list of house-made drinks and Vietnamese classics with a twist. Must-tries include:

• Coconut Cold Brew Coffee
• Passionfruit & Mint Soda
• Fresh Lemongrass Iced Tea
• Mango Ginger Smoothie
• Kombucha (locally brewed)

They’re refreshing, lightly sweetened, and pair perfectly with the tropical Da Nang heat.

Friendly, International, and Chill

Expect to see a diverse mix of locals, travelers, creatives, and families. The atmosphere is always laid-back, with friendly staff who speak English fluently and are happy to walk you through the menu.

Whether you’re popping in for a smoothie bowl after yoga or settling in with your laptop for a working lunch, you’ll feel welcome and inspired.

Vietnom Local Eatery is not just another Vietnamese restaurant — it’s a fresh, forward-thinking space that respects the past while pushing Vietnamese cuisine into the future. If you’re in Da Nang and want a memorable meal in a stunning setting, Vietnom should be at the top of your list.
